locale doesn't change language

Hello everyone great to be here,   I have been SLAMMING my HEAD against EVERY solid surface I can reach, while trying to figure out how to change the language of the "Pay later" message and button.   On my site, I have a function which provides the language which the user has selected from a list. This language updates everything in the page to match the chosen language. I am currently implementing the messaging and button for PayPal's "Pay later" messaging and button, but the language REFUSES TO CHANGE.   Inspecting the script element on the page, it has the "&locale=en_GB" added to it, which - according to the documentation and every forum post about this issue, is the solution - refuses to change to English and remains in GERMAN!   Help me before I resort to more extreme methods of self-harm! ...
